Line 10: * Black Jack - the gambler's game * [[Bridge]] - the intellectual card game, with a rich [[Metagame]] * BS or Bullshit - a popular card shedding game that rewards [[Refuge in Audacity\|outrageous cheating]]. * Crazy Eights - a matching game, fairly simple in its basic form, but [[House Rules]] can bring it to [[Calvin Ball]] levels of complexity. Commercialized as ''Uno''. Has a ridiculous variant, [[Mao]]. The only rule of Mao you can know is that you can't know any of the other rules. * More like, the only rule you are allowed to know, is that you can't know the rest of the rules. There are other rules, but you just can't talk about them. Line 27 ⟶ 25: * Square - a game of the elementary skills of number-matching and teamwork (or, depending on who you're playing with, insanity and more insanity). * Whist - a popular team-based card game. Other types of playing card decks are in use in Europe and Asia. These include French tarot, Italian tarot and Indian ganjifa. [[Mahjong]] may be considered a close cousin despite using tiles. The tarot deck, by the way, was originally ([http://www.tarocchino.com/page2.html and still is]) used for card games, and those games gave rise to the modern concept of a trump suit. Then there are [[Collectible Card Game~~\|Collectible Card Games~~]]s (CCGs). This genre combines the collectability of, for instance, baseball cards, with the mechanics of a card game. They generally have vivid artwork and complicated effects and strategies. Some take place in an original universe, and others are tie-ins to movies or TV series. Some are massively popular, with [[Tournament Play\|tournaments]] and thousands of cards. Between these are "dedicated deck" card games, which use cards with illustrations to implement whatever game concept the designer had. Like [[Collectible Card Game~~\|Collectible Card Games~~]]s, these often have rule text printed on the cards. [http://www.pagat.com/ Pagat.com] describes the rules for many card games around the world. Line 44 ⟶ 41: [[Category:Game Tropes]] [[Category:Trope Makers]] [[Category:Tabletop Games]]
